Choosing
Should you choose WordPress or a custom website?
WordPress suits a team that publishes often and wants to edit most of the site itself. Its choice of plugins gives you options for adding features, though someone needs to keep the installation updated for security. Before choosing it, decide who will make those updates as well as who will publish content.
A custom Next.js site suits a business that wants fast pages, tight security and a design without template limits. Plan for a developer to handle structural changes. A headless setup adds a separate content editor to a custom front end, which suits heavy editing but brings more parts to host and maintain.
A hosted builder such as Wix, Squarespace or Webflow suits a small site you want to run alone. You get less control over code and speed, and moving away later can mean rebuilding. We recommend WordPress or Next.js after learning how your team works and what it needs to edit.

What Halifax organisations need from their websites
Professional services and trade are among Halifax’s largest employment sectors. If you run a consulting or accounting practice, give each service and partner a clear page so prospective clients can check expertise before calling. A supplier needs product or capability pages, certifications and downloadable specifications, with a quote form that asks for enough detail to prepare a useful response.
Halifax’s seven degree-granting post-secondary institutions need visitors to find the right information across a potentially wide range of pages. Agree the sitemap and a content owner for each part of the project at the outset. Include an accessibility target in the brief too, so the design and build have a stated target to work towards.
Rules
What a website project in Canada has to handle
PIPEDA sets federal rules for personal information collected, used and disclosed in private-sector commercial activity. For an enquiry form, we set up the fields and a privacy page explaining what information you collect and how you use and disclose it, using the details you provide.
If you send commercial email, Canada’s anti-spam rules affect the sign-up and message setup. We set up a consent checkbox and an unsubscribe mechanism, and include the sender identification and current mailing address in the message.
How it runs
How a website project runs with us
We work remotely through video calls, WhatsApp and shared project boards. India is ahead of Atlantic Time, which moves one hour closer during daylight saving time. The shared board keeps feedback and decisions visible across that difference.
- 01
Discover
You explain who buys from you, why they choose you and what visitors should do on the site. We use those answers to shape the sitemap.
- 02
Wireframe
We put the content and its order on each page before visual design. You review the priorities and tell us what needs to change.
- 03
Design
We prepare page designs for desktop and mobile. You give feedback, and we refine the designs before the build.
- 04
Build
We develop the site in clean code or with a content management system your team can edit, then test it on real devices and browsers.
- 05
Launch
We set up the domain, email, analytics and Search Console. Your team gets a walkthrough of the site and its setup.
Checklist
What to have ready before we talk
Bring what you have and note what still needs work.
- A goal for the site, such as quote requests, and the person who handles each enquiry.
- Vector logo files, brand colours and fonts, or a note that they still need creating.
- A few sites you like or dislike, with a reason for each choice.
- Account details for the domain, hosting, email, analytics and Search Console, or the name of the person who holds them.
- Real photos of your team, premises and finished work.
- A folder of case studies, permitted client logos, testimonials, certifications and memberships.
Cost & time
What affects the cost and timing of a website?
The work involved changes with the design, content and decisions still to be made.
Page templates
Distinct layouts need separate design and build work; pages sharing a template take less effort.
Brand readiness
An existing logo and style guide reduce design work compared with deciding colours and typefaces during the project.
Content
Service descriptions, team bios, case studies and photos need gathering and writing. Decide who owns each item early.
Search setup
Page titles, descriptions, heading structure and an XML sitemap take less effort to include during the build than to fix later.

Questions
Asked by businesses in Halifax
Page updated 5 November 2026
How much does it cost to have a website built?
There is no fixed price for a website build. Features such as booking, member logins or a CRM connection add design, development and testing work; moving old blog posts, news archives and downloadable files also adds migration and checking work. We send a quote once we have agreed the scope with you.
Is a website still worth investing in?
A website gives you a place to turn visits into enquiries you can measure. Set up analytics to track form submissions, calls and WhatsApp clicks as conversions, then check which pages those visitors started from. That gives you a practical way to assess the site against the enquiries you want.
Can you use our existing brand?
Yes. We build on your existing logo, colours and fonts, and prepare brand assets for use on the web where needed. You can show us the files you already use and identify anything that still needs preparing, so the page designs have a clear basis.
Will we own the website?
Yes. You own your domain, content and code. Your business should also hold the domain and hosting accounts in its own name and grant access to the people working on the site. That way, you retain control of the accounts used to run it.
What happens after the site launches?
We provide ongoing support after launch. Within your business, decide who will keep news, project and job posts current. Assigning those updates to a named person gives your team a practical way to keep the site representative of the work you are doing.
